Feb 20, 2008 16 oz, on tap at Vintage. Pours amber with a 1 cm off-white head. Aroma is a sweeter citrus and a little malt. Initial flavor is a bold maltiness, slight rye and hop notes. Flavor becomes drier at the end. The taste is by far the best part of this red ale. Some lacing, light carbonation, light to medium body, and well hidden alcohol. Drinks well and will continue to consume as long as its on tap.

Feb 18, 2008 Pours amber with an extreme amount of frothy, off-white head. Strong odor of citrus hops. Thin mouthfeel, but a surprisingly subtle, complex taste. Starts off with a light sweet maltyness, then shifts to warm grapefruit and ends with a nice hoppy bitterness. I really like this beer.

Feb 17, 2008 I think somebody shook up my beer! I poured this into a glass and it was 80% foam. And foam is exactly what it was, it had the consistency of soap bubbles and stayed in the glass even after the liquid was gone. This is a pretty different beer, part red, part IPA, with a bit of creaminess. Has a rather dry finish. The beer I was able to drink was good, but this seemed to be all foam. Slight sediment at the end.

Feb 14, 2008 Pours a cloudy reddish brown with a thick white head. Big hop, citrus, malt aroma with a little grapefruit dryness. Thinner than expected body for what seems to be so much malt. Very nice easy drink, good mix of hop and malt. Finishes with a fairly nice hop bitterness.

Feb 13, 2008 Roasted "red" malt aroma backed with a deal of hop. Mahogany color with a vigorous white head. Medium body with creamy carbonation. The flavor is smooth roasted malt with resin and citrus hop. Rye flavor comes out with time, and the balance of malt and hop is pretty good. The finish is lightly sweet and strongly hopped. Very good drink.

Jan 30, 2008 What an extraordinary beer! Beautiful copperish red with floaters. Strong, hoppy aroma with a taste that matches. Unique and almost over powering taste!
It never gets old!! This would be my number 1 choice at any liquor store. So glad it is fairly easy to find in Northeast Wisconsin. If you haven’t had this, delay no longer. You won’t be sorry.
